Synopsis
"A stunning combination of fluent prose and exquisitely wrought illustrations" (School Library Journal). "An inventive twist on the classic tale" (Publishers Weekly). This Egyptian spin on the classic Cinderella tale was initially recorded in the first century by a Roman historian and is retold here by folklorist Shirley Climo. Poor Rhodopis She has nothing--no mother or father, and no friends. She is a slave, from the far-off country of Greece. Only the beautiful rose-red slippers her master gives her can make Rhodopis smile. So when a falcon swoops down and snatches one of the slippers away, Rhodopis is heartbroken. For how is she to know that the slipper will land in the lap of the great Pharaoh himself? And who would ever guess that the Pharaoh has promised to find the slipper's owner and make her queen of all Egypt?

    The book, First Christmas, by Tomie dePaola, arrived earlier than expected and in pristine condition. The seller was both honest and fair in our dealings. I had requested Priority Mailing. She unintentionally missed the request. After mailing, the seller realized the mistake and immediately notified me. She apologized and refunded the expense of Priority Postage! The book arrived in plenty of time! If opportunity arose to purchase from evesbookgarden again, I certainly would!

    Das Buch entspricht genau der Beschreibung, ich bin sehr glücklich über die Erwerbung. Die Kommunikation mit dem Verkäufer war sehr angenehm und Rückmeldungen erfolgten angemessen zeitnah. Insbesondere die gute Kooperation möchte ich erwähnen, welche der Verkäufer in der Bewältigung eines Problems mit dem Zoll bei der Einfuhrprozedur gezeigt hat. Sehr angenehmes Geschäftsverhältnis, Danke!
